Maximum Weighted Likelihood Estimator in Logistic Regression
The least weighted squares estimator is a well known technique in robust regression. Its likelihood analogy in logistic regression is the maximum weighted likelihood estimator, proposed in Vandev and Neykov (1998) and Mueller and Neykov (2003). This article mentions already proved properties, shows its inconsistency and compare it to the other estimators by an extensive simulation. Introduction...
متن کاملLecture 22: Maximum Likelihood Estimator
In the first part of this lecture, we will deal with the consistency and asymptotic distribution of maximum likelihood estimator. The second part of the lecture focuses on signal estimation/tracking. An estimator is said to be consistent if it converges to the quantity being estimated. This section speaks about the consistency of MLE and conditions under which MLE is consistent.
متن کاملOn Calculating the Nonparametric Maximum Likelihood Estimator of a Distribution given Interval Censored Data on Calculating the Nonparametric Maximum Likelihood Estimator of a Distribution given Interval Censored Data
SUMMARY We introduce an algorithm for calculating the nonparametric maximum likelihood estimator of a distribution function when data are interval censored. This algorithm has advantages over existing methods such as the pool-adjacent-violators algorithm and the greatest-convex-minorant algorithm. We establish a theoretical result related to the expected run time of the new method.
متن کاملApproximate Profile Maximum Likelihood
We propose an efficient algorithm for approximate computation of the profile maximum likelihood (PML), a variant of maximum likelihood maximizing the probability of observing a sufficient statistic rather than the empirical sample. The PML has appealing theoretical properties, but is difficult to compute exactly. Inspired by observations gleaned from exactly solvable cases, we look for an appro...
متن کاملSkew-t distribution is an appropriate alternative for the weighted exponential distribution
In this manuscript first a brief introduction to the Skew-t and Weighted exponential distributions is considered and some of their important properties will be studied. Then we will show that the Skew-t distribution is prefered to the Weighted exponential distribution in fitting by using the real data. Finally we will prove our claim by using the simulation method.
